| SS amp for Merlin VSMs? You are correct. I read it in BPs Product News section, but the spec sheet portion does not show that change, still listing Morel. Whatever driver he chose, I'm sure found a way to make it sound "magical". | |
| Music First Audio Passive Magnetic Preamplifiers? MFA is certainly a more flexible unit, as are the BENTs. | |
| Music First Audio Passive Magnetic Preamplifiers? The MFA is said to sound very much like the BENT Audio passive when it used the S&B transformers, I thought the Slagle autoformer version - the BENT TAP-X - sounded even better if you can believe it, and better yet the Lightspeed Attenuator.

| SS amp for Merlin VSMs? I think the TSMs use a Morel tweeter; the VSMs use the Dynaudio Esotars. | |
| SS amp for Merlin VSMs? It won't happen:) | |
| Merlin Master Bam Alert Bobby has usually steered me away from SET, but I'm sure he will pipe in:) | |
| SS amps for merlin vsm Was the Jadis the Orchestra of DA-30? Those Jadis integrated are wonderful indeed, if a bit overpriced, but alas.... | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? Great. We await your observations. P.S. if you want remote control, another option would be the Placette RVC, which is mighty fine, though not to level of the LSA IMHO. | |
| SS amps for merlin vsm Masilu, what about the Ars/Merlin pairing is falling short for you? For many folks it has proven to be a magical pairing, but obviously not for you, but in what way. What changes in sound are you looking for? More of this...less of that, etc. | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? Given the utterly minimalist nature of the LSA in terms on control functions, etc. you would think they would not fear the rath of their advertiser - past, present, and future to have a $470 Class component that is what is, but not a full featured... | |
| Merlin Master Bam Alert Don't know the Ayon too well, heard it RMAF, but the Ars is voiced with the Merlins in mind, and given how important the amp/speaker interface is,hard to imagine why they Ayon would be any better matched to the Merlins. The Ayon uses KT-88s? If so... | |
| Has anybody heard the new Audio Research LS 27? you can add Atma-sphere, Vandersteen, Music Reference, and Merlin as other companies that start with a solid basic design from day one and evolve over time, fine-tuning to a well sorted product with the need to reinvent a product line on a road ma... | |
| Musical Fidelity A5, Simaudio I-5 or Krell s300i Nvp, good post! | |
| Still great after all these years-Dunlavy SC IVs Ditto, ditto, ditto. | |
| SS for Merlins VSMs? Nope, might have to go with the Atma pre, or the Joule yet again:( |
